Paroles
A batter’d and wreck’d old man Thrown on this savage shore, far far from home Pent by the sea and dark rebellious brows, twelve dreary months Sore, stiff with many toils, sicken’d and nigh to death I take my way along the island’s edge Venting a heavy heart I am too full of woe! Haply I may not live another day; I cannot rest O God, I cannot eat or drink or sleep Till I put forth myself, my prayer once more to Thee Breathe, I bathe myself once more in Thee, commune with Thee Report myself once more to Thee Thou knowest my years, my entire life My long and crowded life of active work, not adoration merely; Thou knowest the prayers and vigils of my youth Thou knowest my manhood’s solemn and visionary meditations Thou knowest I have in age ratified all those vows and strictly kept them Thou knowest I have not once lost faith nor ecstasy in Thee In shackles, prison’d, in disgrace, repining not Accepting all from Thee, as duly come from Thee All my empires have been fill’d with Thee My speculations, plans begun, and carried on in thoughts of Thee Sailing the deep or journeying the land for Thee; Intentions, purports, aspirations mone, leaving results to Thee
